Halo 2 is beautiful, but the ending absolutly sucked. I wont spoil it, but Bungie... what the heck were you thinking. For all the time you spent on the game, come up with a better ending. And the plant thing...WTF?! Still the game is pimp, but I am pissed off also. What do you guys think... Here is the poll.

No way should the game have ended just before the final confrontation.

It was a cheap way to get everyone excited about a sequel. Hell, if we knew the game would conclude in Halo 3 we'd buy it anyway. This tactic just annoyed people.

Shame really, because it's a great game.

And if there isn't a sequel, well, that's just a cheap way to end a game.

Plus, being gratified later is okay if you know it's coming. That's why I didn't get annoyed by the ending to Matrix Reloaded.

If the game had said - to be concluded in Halo 3, that would have been okay and I wouldn't be posting this.

Like I said, the game is great but the ending was annoying.

I agree when I beat the last level (which I didn't know was the last level) I was like, woah that was cool, now what. Then I waited for the movie to start anticipating an hours worth of gaming still to come, once I saw the fact that I couldn't skip the last video I was asking myself, thats it? It can't be. Still, the ending is ok but I wish it was different, hey Bungie, make an additional ending like in Halo 1 for when you beat legendary (if this isn't already in) or maybe something like if you can beat any difficulty except easy without dying once you get some extra footage. Hey I won't complain too much, the plant thing was sorta cool I have to admit and it did setup for Halo 3 quite well, I can imagine how hard it must be for the Bungie team to be reading posts insulting their idea that probably took weeks to even think of and much longer to finish. Keep up the good work, the endings alright for now,
*crosses fingers that when he beats legendary there is extra footage*

P.S: I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE HOG TO COME OUT! IT LOOKS SO SICK! C'MON PUT IT UP FOR D/L PLEASE!

I agree with you 100% recon number 54.

This game ended very well in my eyes, in fact it will make Halo 3 (God willing) kick that much more ass.

I've stopped worrying about these people who were disappointed with the ending because they just want the ending now.

Patience, it seems, is not in their vocabulary.

I'm guessing you're also an artist Recon? You certainly appreciate it like one.

Ruccus, did you see the ending after the credits? There is a little bit after that too.
